A legal hold is an essential element of a company's overall records management program, particularly when it comes to electronic information. It needs to be issued to demonstrate a company's good faith and reasonable effort to comply with its discovery obligations. The reality, however, is that the full implications of the legal hold process may not be fully understood by all parties, particularly outside the legal department. Proactive coordination and planning among corporate counsel, outside counsel, IT and other key stakeholders is imperative to ensure good faith compliance in the face of anticipated litigation.
